This isn't a deeply intelectual question...but I'm having a wonderful day/time period actually and wanted to share and see how others are doing.

I have chronic pain and pain from a recent procedure. I have chosen a positive attitude despite these current struggles. This is a change for me. Also, I think we can have not necessarily good or bad days, but moments. If something doesn't go our way it's a bad moment, the whole day isn't bad.

Feel better soon please...and thank you for maintaining positivity through your struggles.

Thanks so much. It is appreciated.

I hope you feel better soon.

If something doesn’t go our way it’s a bad moment, the whole day isn’t bad.

I would say this is generally true, but it can also mean that when we have a good/bad moment, these moments tend to affect how we behave for the rest of the day. Furthermore, how we see the rest of the day. Therefore, bad moments can lead to a bad day as well as good moments can make us deliriously happy for the remainder of the day, which we would call a good day. If multiple moments occur, the feeling is just that stronger one way or the other.

Exactly! But we have to try and let go of the bad moments and not allow those to dictate the rest of our day.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I agree. I try to focus on the moments so I don't consider a day entirely bad like I used to.

I've been feeling sick since yesterday morning, almost as if a bee had stung me in the throat, so I don't feel that great today, but at least I'm feeling better than yesterday

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Get better soon!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Crazy busy at work, but I'm doing great. Thanks for asking!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Well I just woke up. It's been alright. Slept early, for once.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

My day started off fine...then I woke up.

I hope this is just a joke.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Hehe! I understand this!

Sometimes that's good enough :)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Although lately I don't get out of bed with a great positive attitude, during the course of the day my mood improves.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I'm having a good day. It's sunny out, I like it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Most of my days are stressful since my masters program is very disorganized, outside of that they’re good I get to spend a lot of time with my partner since I don’t have a job currently.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Yes. I'm happy I got more energy than las week. Maybe I am sleeping better.
